Hi stamping frineds! Today's spring fling is a double feature. That's right, two cards for spring.
It all starts with this Mojo Monday sketch.
First, three stripes of watercolor was put on the cardstock and dried. The words, birds and sentiment were stamped and embossed with black. The music notes were embossed in white. A few rectangles were drawn with a black sharpie and some clear sequins were added.

This spring, my last son is graduating. He has been so easy to raise, is quick witted and just fun to have around. He will be greatly missed wherever his journey takes him. The front panel is a dentist appointment card that had CONGRATS embossed in white. I had enough left to emboss the hat and diploma. Now, I need some background paper. Distress inks were used to get the blues and greens to match the top panel. Not bad, pretty close match. Next, stamp and emboss the stars. Then it was sprayed with glimmer mist. OOH, sparkly! Everything was popped uo for my graduate!
